Former NBC News anchor Brian Williams is in talks to host Amazon Prime Video's first live news coverage of the presidential election results, marking a significant venture into streaming news.
According to multiple reports, the planned program will be a one-time-only event, relying on state-by-state calls from the Associated Press without an independent decision desk for data analysis.
Prime Video's election coverage will begin streaming live from Amazon's studio in Culver City an hour before polls close on November 5, leading to the announcement of the winner.
While Jeff Bezos owns the Washington Post, the newspaper will not play a formal role in the election night broadcast, keeping the event focused on Prime Video without formal news operation involvement.
